『一』What are the main technical features of blockchain?

“Blockchain is a shared distributed database technology, and its advantages are mainly reflected in Distributed decentralization, trustless system and non-tampering and encryption security.”
1. The meaning of blockchain technology
Blockchain (BlockChain) technology is a method that uses decentralized It is a technology that uses a consensus mechanism to maintain a complete, distributed, and non-tamperable ledger database. It allows participants in the blockchain to implement a unified ledger system without establishing a trust relationship. Blocks are public ledgers and are maintained at multiple points; chains are stamped with timestamps and cannot be forged. Blockchain is essentially a technology that values ​​security and credibility over efficiency.
There is a database behind all current systems, which is a big ledger. Then who will keep this ledger becomes very important. Now it’s whoever owns the system who keeps the accounts. Each bank’s account books are kept by each bank, and Alipay’s account books are kept by Alibaba. But now in the blockchain system, everyone in the system has the opportunity to participate in accounting. If there are new transaction data changes within a certain period of time, everyone in the system can do accounting. The system will judge the person who has the fastest and best accounting during this period, write the recorded content to the ledger, and Send the contents of the ledger during this period to all other people in the system for backup. In this way, everyone in the system has a complete ledger.
Thus, the data becomes very secure. A tamperer needs to modify more than half of the system node data at the same time to truly tamper with the data. Such tampering would be extremely costly, making it nearly impossible. For example, Bitcoin has been running for more than 7 years. Countless hackers around the world have tried to attack Bitcoin, but so far there have been no transaction errors. It can be considered that the Bitcoin blockchain has been proven to be a safe and reliable system. Therefore, it can be considered that blockchain technology is a way for all people to participate in accounting, and it will bring about innovation in accounting methods.

『二』Is it okay to invest in blockchain now? What are the precautions?

You can participate with a small amount of money. BiJing is the next generation Internet outlet. The following is my investment experience over the past year. Hope it helps.

While I was relaxing physically and mentally during the holidays, I took stock of the pitfalls I had gone through, sorted out the gains and losses, and came to the following insights.

1. In the early days, I believed too much in the words of Big V, the big guy in the currency circle, and bought some coins from their platform. Now it is close to zero. I feel that I am so naive that I believe their lies. It is difficult for people to withstand the temptation of huge wealth, and of course they cannot escape. But saying one thing and doing another, and not admitting it in the end, has lost their moral bottom line. They have made a lot of money, leaving me waiting for Leek to stand on the top of the mountain and tremble.

2. The judgment of market trends by various public accounts and various media in the currency circle is almost the same as the effect of betting on dice.many. Of course, this does not mean that the media are completely irresponsible or incompetent. In fact, some media still cherish their feathers and do their best to analyze projects and judge trends for fans. But don’t forget that, by nature, the market is unpredictable, otherwise it wouldn’t be called a market. Bankers and leeks are always playing a cat-and-mouse game. The media’s predictions often provide savvy bankers with guidance on reverse actions. When most media are optimistic about the market, it is also when the bankers raise their sickles; when the media generally believes that When the market is still going deep, the market makers may be building positions secretly. This is not difficult to understand, because the media acts as the opinion leader of the leeks.

3. The current market still shows the characteristics of capital market, which is dominated by speculation, and the real value investment of blockchain has not yet been reflected. The performance is that almost all altcoins are linked to the rise and fall of Bitcoin. Why is it related to Bitcoin? Because there are no other standards to rely on? If there is no killer application, this linkage effect will be difficult to break, and there will be no real bull market in the currency market. The killer application mentioned here is not like Ethereum, issuing coins, building an underlying public chain, etc., but having real application scenarios that can link virtual digital assets on the chain to reality. In the supply and demand of the scene, DAPP must have a good user experience and be accepted by the public outside the currency circle. In this case, digital currency will have real support, and the development of blockchain will usher in spring, otherwise it will be just speculation.

4. Often start from historical phenomena to form expectations for the future. In 2017, some altcoins had a market price of a hundred times or even higher. Therefore, I always feel that the altcoin in my hand has increased three to five times after I bought it, which is not satisfactory and not in place. As a result, I did not sell it in time and ended up rotting in my hands. Let's analyze it. This time is not that time. At that time, there were fewer projects and more funds. At this time, there are more projects and less funds. The situation is exactly the opposite. Ignorance and greed are very dangerous. Since 2018, as the big Vs have made profits and left the market, the funds on the market have shrunk significantly. Even if the market rises, the original market funds are playing the game. The money-making effect is getting smaller and smaller. OTC funds are waiting and watching. Only Only when the wealth-creating effect appears will OTC funds have the urge to come in.

5. New ways of playing are constantly emerging. As the money-making effect becomes smaller and smaller, new leeks become old leeks, and it is difficult to harvest them with traditional harvesting methods. Only by making some innovations can the leeks flock to it and obey. Fcoin trading and mining, Huoniu video, etc. have made a small group of people rich, and at the same time made a large group of people miserable. These projects are essentially a drum-passing fund-raising game, changing the soup without changing the medicine. The earlier you participate, the better the results will be. By the time I wait for Leek to participate, it will basically be in the mid-to-late stage. If I invest money in it, it will definitely be harvested. Since I participated in Fcoin early, I made a small profit, but I participated in Huoniu late, and was cut as soon as I entered. Fortunately, I only invested a little tentatively.

6. Will the market rise again? The answer is yes. From two aspects. On the one hand, blockchain is the future trend, which has already been establishedconsensus. It is said that there is a rule that can prove whether a technology can become a trend in the future. It depends on whether the number of articles published about this technology can increase exponentially every year. Blockchain completely complies with this rule. On the other hand, as mentioned earlier, the current market is mainly capital. So even if blockchain is not a future trend, it will still have a good market. Because the characteristic of the capital market is that when funds enter the market, the market will rise, and when funds withdraw from the market, the market will fall, and there is no need for a reason for funds to enter and exit the market. Currently, the funds on the market include not only retail investors, but also large investors and institutions. It is not only leeks that are trapped, but also bankers who have cut the vegetables but failed to harvest. No matter who you are, there is only one purpose for entering the currency circle, and that is to make money. If the market does not rise, there will be no big money-making effect. If it falls for a long time, it will rise. This is an unbreakable rule. Of course, whether retail investors can make money depends on themselves. of good fortune.

Future plans:

1. Best policy. Strictly control positions, adjust layout, and stay away from air coins. Position control is always the first priority and is the lifeline of investors. Only after losing money did I realize the importance of position control. I really regret it now. If I had entered the dissatisfied position, I wouldn't have been so deeply trapped. Now that the matter has come to this, if we decisively liquidate all air-related projects, we can free up some funds. Then, select a few high-quality projects for fixed investment. If you don't have enough funds, you can spend a small part of it from your daily income. To do this step well, you need to add an important link, which is learning. The reason why I couldn't distinguish between good and bad projects in the past was that I didn't study enough and my skills were shallow. Instead of focusing your time and energy on watching the market, checking public accounts, and asking for news, it is better to focus on studying. Accumulated knowledge and skills are also a kind of wealth, and no one can take them away. It is necessary to learn basic knowledge about economics, finance and investment, but also to learn about blockchain. I have read some books (General Economics, Economics in One Lesson, Xiang Shuai’s Peking University Finance Course (subscription required, electronic version not available), Buffett’s Law, Buffett Teaches You to Read Financial Reports, Blockchain Technology Guide, Decoding Zone Blockchain complete set), the link address is given (link:

Extraction code: sbmv) If you need it, you can download it with confidence.

2. The middle strategy. Do an oversold rebound. The small money-making effect does not mean that there is no money-making effect. You must enter the market with a small amount of money, you must focus on one or two projects, and you must move in and out quickly when there is a sharp decline that makes most people panic. You must not be reluctant to fight. (You can pay attention to one or two large public accounts to judge the panic in the market.)

3. Make the final decision. Be a wool party. On the premise of not expending energy, it is not a bad idea to receive candies and get some benefits. Under the current market situation, grasshoppers are also meat. The traditional way of receiving candy is too troublesome, and the gain is not worth the loss. Found two candy delivery platform projects, one is Fulcrum:

The other is Ant Mine Chicken:

The former airdrops various candies from time to time, and also has community social attributes, forming a system operations, and received strategic investment from Binance and Huobi; the latter is a candy worldIts new candy game platform uses the game of raising chickens and eggs to accumulate candy. It is reported that it has just received strategic investment from GBls (Global Sleepless Blockchain Leaders Summit).

In addition, some Dapps that are in the testing stage are also worth a try. Anyway, it doesn’t involve any energy, just think of it as a way to relax after stressful work. Fighting video (ios version: https://fir.im/51ds Android version: http://a.app.qq.com/o/simple.jsppkgname=com.xysk.mvpart.douxi, invitation code: WN4VIZ) , focusing on creating a vertical segmentation field for professional artists. Fans and users can accumulate star power and sign in every day to obtain stars. Stars can be exchanged for prizes or sold privately. It will be launched in October.

『三』What is blockchain and how to make money with blockchain

Blockchain is a term in the field of information technology. In essence, it is a shared database, and the data or information stored in it has the characteristics of "unforgeable", "full traces left", "traceable", "open and transparent" and "collectively maintained". Based on these characteristics, blockchain technology has laid a solid foundation of "trust" and created a reliable "cooperation" mechanism, which has broad application prospects.
The ways to make money in the blockchain are as follows:
1. Coin speculation. Coin speculation is like stock speculation. Coin speculation is the lowest threshold for making money in the blockchain;
2. Vendors, district Blockchain is a global market. Like small traders, you can move from a low-price platform to a high-price platform to sell and earn the difference;
3. Earn commissions for promotion. The blockchain method is to register first Exchange account, generate your own invitation link, and then promote it. If someone registers the exchange through your link and generates transactions, you can get a commission;
4. Mining, "mining" in Bitcoin is The accounting process;
5. Technical support, providing blockchain technical support to some teams and enterprises;
6. Opening a trading website and charging handling fees;
7. Developing wallets and wallets It is the infrastructure of the blockchain, just like the "Alipay" or "WeChat Pay" of the blockchain;
8. Be a blockchain project or infrastructure equipment supplier.

Warm reminder: The above explanation is for reference only and does not make any suggestions. There are risks in entering the market, so investment needs to be cautious. Before making any investment, you should ensure that you fully understand the investment nature of the product and the risks involved. After understanding and carefully evaluating the product, you can make your own judgment on whether to participate in the transaction.

『四』 Application aspects of blockchain

The main application scope of blockchain includes: digital currency, transaction settlement of financial assets, digital government affairs, and certificate deposit and anti-counterfeiting Data services and other fields. Blockchain is a database technology that links data blocks in an orderly manner. Each block is responsible for recording a file data and encrypting it to ensure that the data cannot be modified or forged.

Blockchain is essentially a distributed database system that uses cryptography technology for multi-party participation, joint maintenance, and continuous growth. It is also called a distributed shared ledger. Each page in the shared ledger is a block, and each block is filled with transaction records. The anonymity, decentralization, openness, transparency, and non-tamperability of blockchain technology make it highly favored by enterprises and has gained More extensive application attempts.

Blockchain application scope 1. Financial field

Blockchain can provide a trust mechanism and has the potential to change the financial infrastructure. Various financial assets such as equity, bonds, bills, warehouse receipts, fund shares, etc. It can be integrated into the blockchain technology system and become a digital asset on the chain, which can be stored, transferred and traded on the blockchain.

The decentralization of blockchain technology can reduce transaction costs and make financial transactions more convenient, intuitive and secure. The combination of blockchain technology and the financial industry will inevitably create more and more business models, service scenarios, business processes and financial products, thereby bringing more impact to the development of financial markets, financial institutions, financial services and financial formats. . With the improvement of blockchain technology and the combination of blockchain technology with other financial technologies, blockchain technology will gradually adapt to the application of large-scale financial scenarios.

2. Public service field

Traditional public services rely on limited data dimensions, and the information obtained may not be comprehensive enough and have a certain lag. The non-tamperable nature of the blockchain makes the digital certification on the chain highly credible. It can be used to establish new authentication mechanisms in the fields of property rights, notarization and public welfare, and improve the management level of public services.

Relevant information in the public welfare process, such as donation projects, fundraising details, fund flows, recipient feedback, etc., can be stored on the blockchain to meet the privacy protection of project participants and other relevant laws and regulations. Under the premise of requirements, public disclosure will be made conditionally to facilitate public and social supervision.

3. Information security field

Using the traceability and non-tampering characteristics of blockchain, we can ensure the authenticity of data sources and ensure the non-forgery of data. Blockchain technology will fundamentally change information Security issues of the propagation path.

Blockchain is reflected in the following three points in the field of information security:

User identity authentication protects data integrity and effectively prevents DDoS attacks

The distributed storage architecture of blockchain will make Hackers are at a loss as to what to do. Some companies have begun to develop a distributed Internet domain name system based on blockchain to eliminate the root cause of the current DNS registration shortcomings and make the network system cleaner and more transparent.

4. Internet of Things field

areaBlockchain + Internet of Things allows each device on the Internet of Things to operate independently, and the information generated by the entire network can be protected through smart contracts in the blockchain.

Security: Traditional IoT devices are highly vulnerable to attacks, data loss and maintenance costs are high. Typical information security risk issues for IoT devices include low firmware versions, lack of security patches, permission loopholes, too many device network ports, and unencrypted information transmission. The blockchain's consensus mechanism for network-wide node verification, asymmetric encryption technology and distributed data storage will significantly reduce the risk of hacker attacks.

Trustability: The traditional Internet of Things is managed and controlled by a centralized cloud server. Due to the security of the device and the opacity of the centralized server, it is difficult to effectively protect user privacy data. The blockchain is a distributed account book. Each block is interconnected and has its own independent working ability, ensuring that the information on the chain will not be tampered with at will. Distributed ledgers can therefore provide trust, ownership records, transparency and communication support for the Internet of Things.

Effectiveness: Limited by cloud services and maintenance costs, the Internet of Things is difficult to achieve large-scale commercial use. The traditional Internet of Things realizes communication between things through centralized cloud servers. The disadvantage of this model is that as the number of access devices increases, the server faces more load, requiring enterprises to invest a lot of money to maintain the normal operation of the IoT system.

Blockchain technology can directly realize point-to-point transactions, omitting the labor expenditure of other intermediaries or personnel, which can effectively reduce the costs incurred by third-party services and maximize benefits.

5. Supply chain field

The supply chain consists of many participating entities, with a large amount of interaction and collaboration. Information is discretely stored in their own systems, lacking transparency. The lack of smooth information makes it difficult for various participating entities to accurately understand the real-time status and existing problems of related matters, affecting the collaborative efficiency of the supply chain. When disputes arise between parties, it is time-consuming and laborious to provide evidence and pursue accountability.

Blockchain can make data open and transparent among various entities, thereby forming a complete, smooth, and non-tamperable information flow throughout the entire supply chain. This can ensure that all entities promptly discover problems arising during the operation of the supply chain system and find targeted solutions, thus improving the overall efficiency of supply chain management.

6. Automotive Industry

Last year announced a partnership using blockchain to build a proof of concept to streamline the car rental process and build it into a “click, sign up, and drive” process. Future customers choose what they want The rented car enters the public ledger of the blockchain; then, sitting in the driver's seat, the customer signs the rental agreement and insurance policy, and the blockchain updates the information simultaneously. This is not an imagination, for car sales and car registration Said, this type of process may also develop into reality.

7. Stock Trading

For many years, many companies have worked to make the process of buying, selling, and trading stocks easy. Emerging Blockchain Chain startups believe that blockchain technology can make this process more secure and automated,And it is better than any previous solution. At the same time, the blockchain startup Chain is cooperating with Nasdaq to realize the equity transfer of private companies through the blockchain

8. Government Management

Government information, project bidding, etc. Information is open and transparent, and government work is usually subject to public attention and supervision. Since blockchain technology can ensure the transparency and immutability of information, it plays a great role in the implementation of transparent government management. There is a certain degree of information opacity in government project bidding, and companies also have the risk of information leakage during the sealed bidding process. Blockchain can ensure that bidding information cannot be tampered with, and can ensure the transparency of information, forming a shared trust among competitors who do not trust each other. And it can arrange subsequent smart contracts through the blockchain to ensure the construction progress of the project and prevent the growth of corruption to a certain extent.

There are many more applications of blockchain technology, and this is just a fulcrum of blockchain applications. In the future, blockchain technology will be applied everywhere

『Wu』 Is blockchain such an emerging technology practical?

There is a sudden explosion on the Internet A storm - "blockchain", with overwhelming "blockchain" information mixed with words such as "black technology", "revolution", "get rich overnight", etc., people are confused about this "blockchain" Water, what exactly is this "blockchain"? Why is it so popular?

2018 is known as the "first year of blockchain". The explosive development of the blockchain industry has made enterprises and even BAT business giants have all set foot on the blockchain and have a seat at the table.

So what fields can blockchain technology be applied to in the future?

1. Financial field

Blockchain is the underlying technology of Bitcoin was extracted, so it is naturally applicable to the financial field. At present, the application of blockchain in the financial field is mainly explored in several aspects: digital currency, payment and clearing, digital bills, bank credit management, proof of equity and exchange securities transactions, insurance management and financial auditing, etc.

In May 2018, Tencent and the Shenzhen Municipal State Taxation Bureau jointly established the "Smart Tax" Innovation Laboratory, which uses cloud computing, artificial intelligence, blockchain, big data and other technologies to promote the "Smart Taxation" In-depth cooperation in the field of "Internet + Taxation". At present, "Smart Tax" will focus on exploring digital invoice solutions based on blockchain, with the goal of solving the problem of counterfeit invoices first.

2. E-commerce field

Today, my country's e-commerce industry is developing rapidly. While developing rapidly, it has exposed some hidden dangers of "counterfeiting" and it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of goods. , but after applying blockchain technology, the authenticity of products can be traced in the supply chain. At present, both JD.com and Alibaba have entered the blockchain and want to use blockchain technology to combat "counterfeiting".

Blockchain e-commerce is also gradually emerging as a new e-commerce model. Using the characteristics of blockchain,Product traceability can be traced to check authenticity.

The Granary APP uses the characteristics of blockchain technology to trace the entire process of goods, and applies blockchain technology to users’ shopping, sharing, browsing and other scenarios. Among them, it is gifted to users through Token (tradable digital proof of rights), in which various participants can share and use data as needed to achieve high reliability of the data trading market, low-cost transactions and win-win for all parties.

Film and television field

Film and television is known as a "high-income" and "high-risk" industry. Regardless of whether a film and television project is successful or not, the initial investment is huge. There are many factors that affect the success of a film and television project: script, actors, production team, publicity, box office, etc. These problems can be effectively solved using blockchain technology.

Take the familiar HLW Chain as an example. Users invest in project scripts on the HLW Chain, allowing users to choose scripts and participate in the film and television production, promotion and viewing process. To ensure the quality of the film, it can effectively and accurately predict the box office revenue after the film is released, and can also introduce investment funds. Blockchain technology has the characteristics of a distributed ledger, and everyone can participate in accounting, so

『Lu』 briefly talks about several major applications of blockchain and which ones are pitfalls

What can blockchain do? Blockchain, a great technology that accompanied the birth of Bitcoin, is currently being used in the financial field to significantly reduce transaction costs and improve efficiency, which is enough to excite Wall Street. However, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Its potential applications are very broad and will subvert every aspect of our lives in the future.

The Internet is an information network, with 0s and 1s flowing in it. Blockchain is a value network, and its role is to transmit value, unlike the Internet for data transmission.

Speaking of value transfer, there is a very simple scenario, such as payment, I have 100 yuan in hand, and I want to transfer it to the group. I can use WeChat red envelopes or WeChat transfers. Here During the transaction process, a third party is required to participate, and the transmission method of the blockchain is point-to-point transmission, which does not require any intermediate node. This is a very big difference between the blockchain and our existing architecture.

When it comes to peer-to-peer payments, many people will think of Bitcoin, because most people know blockchain from Bitcoin. What is the difference between blockchain and Bitcoin?

Blockchain is the technology behind Bitcoin; blockchain is a basic technical architecture that designs and implements an autonomous system with multi-party participation through a specific data structure and consensus algorithm.

The specific data structure is actually the name blockchain itself, that is, its data is placed in data blocks one by one, and then the data blocks are connected and implemented using a chain.now. "Consensus algorithm" is a very important concept in blockchain. Without synchronic algorithm, there would be no meaning of blockchain.

Introduction to Bubi Blockchain

Bubi Blockchain has been focusing on the R&D and innovation of blockchain technology and products since its establishment, and has a number of core technologies. It has made substantial innovations in many aspects and formed a number of core technical achievements, such as: mathematically provable distributed consensus technology, fast large-scale ledger access technology, multi-chain general ledger technology that supports business expansion, and heterogeneous ledger technology. Construct interconnection technology between blockchains, etc. On April 25, "Gege Points" introduced the concept of blockchain into the points system, jointly opened it up with multiple parties, issued and redeemed points, and promoted the circulation of points. Each cooperative institution can jointly participate in transaction verification, ledger storage, and real-time settlement; the third-party payment platform of the enterprise points issuer makes the entry and exit of points more flexible. Bubi has developed its own basic blockchain service platform, which has been applied in equity, supply chain, points, credit and other fields. Bubi has been committed to building an open value circulation network with decentralized trust as the core, allowing digital assets to flow freely.

Having said that, let’s analyze the difference between blockchain and Bitcoin?

1. Essential difference. For the world, Bitcoin is a digital currency based on cryptography, while blockchain, as we just said, is a value transfer protocol. There is an essential difference between the two, because one is a digital currency. , one is a value transfer protocol.

2. Algorithm. Bitcoin's consensus algorithm is based on a working algorithm called proof of work, POW. There are many different consensus algorithms in the blockchain. It can use either the Bitcoin POW algorithm, the POS algorithm, or the DPS algorithm.

3. Transaction speed. Bitcoin is limited to a maximum of seven transactions per second. Please note that what is mentioned here is the maximum and not the average, because this is a very strict definition. For the blockchain, the number of transactions per second can actually reach tens of thousands or more, so this is also One major difference between blockchain and Bitcoin. Because many people will be confused and say that the transaction speed of the blockchain is seven transactions per second. This is wrong. This is a limitation of Bitcoin. The blockchain can reach very high speeds based on its different consensus algorithms and linking methods. Transaction speed.

4. Link form. Bitcoin is a blockchain based on the Internet, which means we call it a public chain. The blockchain can be in the form of a public chain, a private chain, or a consortium chain.

5. Limitations. It is recommended that everyone not touch some digital currencies related to blockchain. What's the reason? Bitcoin is a digital currency. Although it has very good and different characteristics, it does not comply with financial supervision. In other words, these 21 million Bitcoins are not in the country.It is issued without national credit as a multiple without national authorization. The blockchain also has some limitations. Although it is just a protocol and a technology, it is still a new technology in its infancy.

To summarize, blockchain is a relatively low-level protocol and a technical infrastructure, on which there are various consensus algorithms. If the blockchain is 1, the consensus algorithm may be 10 to 20, but the applications based on it may be one thousand or two thousand, or more. In other words, Bitcoin is only one of many blockchain applications. A realization. Therefore, Bitcoin and blockchain cannot be equated. Bitcoin is only a very elementary implementation of blockchain.

What can blockchain do? Blockchain problem? In the bill market, digital bills based on blockchain technology can become a safer, smarter, and more convenient bill form. Point-to-point transactions realized with the help of blockchain can break the existing functions of bill intermediaries and realize the disintermediation of bill value transfer; the construction and data storage of digital bill systems do not require a central server, eliminating the need for the development of central applications and access systems. costs, reducing the maintenance and optimization costs of the system under the traditional model, and reducing the risks caused by system centralization; based on the non-tamperability of information on the blockchain, once the transaction is completed, there will be no default, thereby avoiding "one Behaviors such as "selling too many tickets" and out-of-synchronization of payment and endorsement effectively prevent risks in the bill market. The securities trading market is also an area where blockchain technology has great potential. The current traditional securities trading model has the shortcomings of long transaction processes, low transaction efficiency, and high comprehensive costs. In addition, there are strong intermediaries and regulatory agencies, and the rights of financial consumers are often not protected. Applying blockchain technology, buyers and sellers can be directly matched through smart contracts, and the efficiency of transaction execution can be greatly improved. Settlement and delivery can be automatically realized through a distributed digital registration system. Since the data entered into the block is irreversible and can be copied to each data block within a short period of time, the information entered into the blockchain actually has a publicity effect, so the occurrence of the transaction and the confirmation of ownership will not occur. dispute.

What can blockchain do? Blockchain problem? Although there is no mature underlying blockchain technology platform solution currently, technical problems such as capacity scalability, privacy protection, inability to settle on a net basis, and non-recourse after the fact also need to be solved, and large-scale application of blockchain Technology also requires redesigning IT architecture and reengineering business processes, but these are only technical issues. The real test of blockchain technology taking root and growing in the financial field is the ontology of regulatory agencies and financial institutions. Will the inherent "deregulation" and "decentralization" characteristics of blockchain make market entities have no motivation to drive technology? Innovation. However, since blockchain is a technology based on mathematical algorithms, the establishment of a trust relationship between transaction parties does not require the use of intermediaries or authoritative centers at all, and the cost of establishing a trust relationship is almost zero (in the case of blockchain financial infrastructure and ancillary infrastructure)(under the premise of the establishment of infrastructure), and the blockchain code is open source and open, without geographical restrictions, and the network pattern is distributed and interconnected, laying a technical foundation for the establishment and development of future inclusive finance and shared finance, and creating material for global financial integration and unification. condition. From this point of view alone, blockchain technology will surely establish a core position in future financial development, and it will rely on and complement each other to win the future.

『撒』 How will blockchain develop in 2021

Blockchain empowers the development of the real economy. With the development of blockchain technology, its application scenarios have become more in-depth, ranging from commodity traceability, judicial certificate storage, government affairs, supply chain finance, trade finance, and social welfare to industrial management, energy and power, data transactions, public resource transactions, digital Identity, medical and health and other fields.

『8』 Give an example of what is blockchain

Question 1: What is blockchain technology? What exactly is blockchain? What is blockchain? 1. Data blockchain is an important concept in the Bitcoin financial system. It records transaction record data on the entire Bitcoin network, and these data are shared by all Bitcoin nodes. Through the data block, we can query each transaction record. A look at the history of Bitcoin transactions. 2. Example: There are three persons A, B, and C. All funds of A and B are kept by C. And every financial transaction must be recorded by C. Now assume that A and B each have 1 million in custody of C. Then: A spends 80,000 yuan to B, then C's account book record will subtract 80,000 yuan from A's name, and add 80,000 yuan to B's name. If B transfers 50,000 yuan to A, C will add 50,000 yuan to A's name and subtract 50,000 yuan to B's name in the account book. A spends 50,000 yuan to B, then C's account book record will subtract 50,000 yuan from A's name, and add 50,000 yuan to B's name. 3. The role of the data blockchain is similar to that of C’s account record book. It records the user’s ownership of Bitcoin and the records of all users’ Bitcoin transactions. It’s just that this “account record book” is recorded by the mining software of every Bitcoin miner on the network. If a Bitcoin transaction is confirmed by the data blockchain, the relevant information will be recorded in the data blockchain. Bitcoin’s “account record book” is called the data blockchain. All data blockchains on the network form Bitcoin’s distributed network database system. 4. The essence of data blockchain technology is a decentralized and distributed structure of data storage, transmission and certification methods. It uses data blocks to replace the current Internet's dependence on central servers, so that all data changes or transaction items are recorded. On a cloud system, the self-certification of data during data transmission is theoretically realized. In a far-reaching sense, this transcends the traditional and conventional information verification paradigm that relies on a center and reduces the cost of establishing global "credit." This point-to-point verification will produce a "basic protocol", which is a new form of distributed artificial intelligence and will establish a new interface and shared interface between human brain intelligence and machine intelligence.

Question 2: What is the transaction process of the blockchain? Best to give an example 20 points 1. Definition
Blockchain is like an open network ledger. It originated from Bitcoin and is the underlying technology of Bitcoin. In a Bitcoin transaction, all the information recorded in the transaction is packaged into a "Block" for storage. With the expansion of information exchange, blocks are linked to each other, forming a blockchain.
2. Characteristics
Digital currency represented by Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. Among them, each transaction will be broadcast to all participants in the network, and will be recorded in the ledger after multiple confirmations. This ledger is the "blockchain". every participantIt will have its own ledger. In this way, when false information occurs, it can be broken through mutual verification, thereby ensuring network security.
In the blockchain, every node is equal, and there is no centralized management organization. This "decentralization" feature makes the blockchain unnecessary to rely on third parties, and its operation does not require any human effort. intervention, capable of independent self-validation. In addition, the blockchain network is open to the world, and anyone can query data through the public port, so the entire system is highly transparent.
3. Application
In short, the blockchain is a trusted database and a reliable "ledger". In the future, it will be used in cross-border payments, securities, loans, voting, etc. For example, in cross-border payments, with the security provided by blockchain, money can be sent to the world anytime and anywhere, thus eliminating many intermediate links and high handling fees.

Question 3: What is blockchain? What does it mean in layman’s terms? What is China’s attitude towards blockchain? What can blockchain do? Blockchain, a great technology that accompanied the birth of Bitcoin, is currently being used in the financial field to significantly reduce transaction costs and improve efficiency, which is enough to excite Wall Street. However, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Its potential applications are very broad and will subvert every aspect of our lives in the future.
Blockchain is an important concept of Bitcoin. It is essentially a decentralized database and serves as the underlying technology of Bitcoin. One of the most basic characteristics of Bitcoin is decentralization. In recent months, financial giants have gradually begun to pay attention to Bitcoin's technology and used it in non-monetary fields, such as stock trading, election voting, etc. (1) Art Industry
Artists can use blockchain technology to declare ownership and issue numberable, 100% edition works in digital form for any type of artwork. It even includes a marketplace where artists can buy and sell through their website without the need for any intermediary services.
(2), Real estate industry
Use blockchain technology to solve various problems faced by everyone involved in real estate, including the naming process, land registration, agency intermediaries, etc.
(3), Insurance Industry
The financial industry has always been the most sensitive to advanced technology. Traditional banking and securities industry giants have been involved in the booming blockchain venture capital investment since 2014, with total global investment reaching US$1 billion within two years.
(4) P2P wallet
Personal assets can be traded through this P2P wallet in the future without going through any central institution, such as Bitcoin.
Most blockchains are in their infancy, mainly overseas. There are very few good domestic blockchain projects, so we do not recommend any non-Professionals invest in blockchain projects. If you are very interested in blockchain technology and have a technical or financial background, it is recommended that you consider starting a business in this area. In terms of the blockchain protocol system, the lowest layer is the underlying technology of the blockchain, including the technical protocols of the blockchain, as well as some platform routing and basic algorithms; in the middle layer, some application interfaces and some credentials must be solved Issuance and verification, including some industry platform services, big data analysis, etc. This is a very rough classification, and there should be more detailed classifications; the top ones are some applications of blockchain, including finance Some applications and some applications in other aspects, the Internet of Things and so on.
Introduction to Bubi Blockchain
Bubi Blockchain has been focusing on the research and development and innovation of blockchain technology and products since its establishment. It has a number of core technologies and has achieved substantial results in many aspects. Radical innovation has resulted in a number of core technological achievements, such as: mathematically provable distributed consensus technology, fast large-scale ledger access technology, multi-chain general ledger technology that supports business expansion, and interconnection technology between heterogeneous blockchains. wait. On April 25, "Gege Points" introduced the concept of blockchain into the points system, jointly opened it up with multiple parties, issued and redeemed points, and promoted the circulation of points. Each cooperative institution can jointly participate in transaction verification, ledger storage, and real-time settlement; the third-party payment platform of the enterprise points issuer makes the entry and exit of points more flexible. Bubi has developed its own basic blockchain service platform, which has been applied in equity, supply chain, points, credit and other fields. Bubi has been committed to building an open value circulation network with decentralized trust as the core, allowing digital assets to flow freely.
A simple understanding of blockchain is a technology at the bottom of Bitcoin, which is also a peer-to-peer electronic cash system that can realize peer-to-peer value delivery. We should distinguish between Bitcoin, Bitcoin blockchain, blockchain and blockchain. Blockchain technology and other concepts. In countries with relatively developed finance in the past, finance and blockchain technology have a long history, and the legislation of digital currencies and blockchain networks is also very important. With the advent of the financial era, large financial institutions are studying blockchain technology. They have their own teams and conceptual technologies. Slowly, banks in various regions are also participating in digital currency discussions. The application and support of this technology are not only that. The influence of blockchain on enterprises is also huge. For larger domestic enterprises, Bubi Blockchain is also used in various equity, supply chain, points and other fields. Major domestic financial institutions and enterprises have taken a fancy to the new industry. value, they have developed their own blockchain platforms, and blockchain has instantly become a new innovative industry in China. In terms of overseas internationalization, the United States has already obtained 15 blockchain patents at the end of last year compared to China. Blockchain financial applications are entering a new stage in an all-round way. Various applications will become more and more in-depth, and related changes will also become more and more profound. It is attracting more and more attention and will form a huge new trend... >>

Question 4: What is blockchain technology?What is blockchain? How to explain the concept of blockchain? People in each industry have different understandings, and relevant explanations are gradually emerging due to more and more real-life applications. With the popularization of this blockchain technology, the related results are getting bigger and bigger. If we want to understand this technology, we must have an in-depth understanding of reality.
In the past six months, the concept of blockchain has gradually become popular in China, and a blockchain whirlwind has taken off in the financial circle. Blockchain has attracted the attention and favor of more and more people in the industry due to its unique technical advantages. Blockchain technology, which is decentralized (or multi-centered), highly transparent, cannot be tampered with, and has no single point of failure, is entering the field of vision of financial institutions and enterprises. It has at least been used in digital currency, payment exchange, registration and settlement, Digital assets, traceability and anti-counterfeiting, supply chain, Internet of Things and many other fields have moved from theoretical discussions to practical applications.
"Blockchain" was first introduced with "Bitcoin" released in early 2009. Blockchain has become the basic protocol and technical application for the launch, recording, and circulation of Bitcoin. Although Bitcoin has been controversial since its inception and cannot even be regarded as a "currency" by governments and monetary authorities, the blockchain technology used in Bitcoin has been recognized by governments, including governments and monetary authorities. extensive attention.
Why has blockchain become a rapidly heating up hot technology and topic?
The most important of these may be that the launch of Bitcoin based on blockchain technology has opened up a new relationship with traditional society ( The exploration and attempt of brand-new technologies and rule systems such as Internet user identity verification, wealth confirmation, transaction records, notarization and verification, which have little connection with offline) and are fully applied in the online world (online), provide people with the opportunity to adapt to the Internet society. Development provides alternative paths and unlimited imagination.
Judging from its application in Bitcoin, blockchain is a set of new network blocks (BLOCK, also called communities) formed by combining encryption technology with the Internet. Bitcoin configuration, netizen identity verification, and Bitcoin (value) confirmation formed by mining, Bitcoin transaction records, and extended encryption of Bitcoin cross-block flow (value transfer) (added block and transaction time identification, etc. Internet protocol rules and accounting (Ledger) system including block chain, full encryption, mutual authentication, etc., including factor) registration and verification. Precisely because Bitcoin is not a substitute for offline legal currency, but is issued and managed by non-legal currency authorities, mainly imitating the model of gold, and is completely new and decentralized protected and supported by basic Internet protocols and strict encryption technology. Internet currency (virtual currency) has thus formed a new set of currency rules and systems that are different from and not subject to real social laws, and can be bought, sold or exchanged with legal currency. It has been more than 8 years since Bitcoin was launched. There has been no record of funds or user information being stolen. Its security has been verified, and its fundsThe efficiency and cost of liquidation also have clear advantages. This has made people's confidence in the blockchain technology used in Bitcoin continue to increase, and people have become more and more aware that although blockchain is a technology and protocol pioneered and applied by Bitcoin, the blockchain Chain is not the same as Bitcoin, and its application is by no means limited to Bitcoin. The application of blockchain can be decentralized or centralized; it can be a public chain model or a private chain model. Therefore, after Bitcoin, blockchain technology is also constantly developing and innovating, and constantly exploring new application fields, especially in the financial field.
The reason why blockchain is valued highly by more and more people is because the development and widespread application of the Internet have caused more and more economic exchanges and transaction activities to be conducted online, and the online world (or online world) society) is rapidly expanding, enriching and active, and online transactions must solve the efficiency and security protection issues of the parties' identity verification, value verification, transaction records, inspection and verification, etc., and require strict intermediaries and agreements (rules or constitutions). In this regard, traditional thinking and customary practices are to follow the development trajectory of the transfer of offline transactions to online and push the common rules and practices of the real (offline) society to the online (network) society. However, in practice, it is increasingly It is difficult to adapt to the needs of online transactions.
For example, for the identity verification of the parties, the natural choice is to use the information on the identity documents protected by the laws of various countries as the basis, and then add account or transaction passwords, as well as facial recognition, iris, fingerprints and other biometrics to conduct online transactions. Verification, but this method first makes the citizen identity information in the cross-border interconnected online world subject to the administrative jurisdiction of real society... >>

Question 5: The so-called "district" What is "Blockchain"? Blockchain itself is a tool called decentralization and trustlessness. For example, when you graduate from university, the current practice is to have a certificate recognized and issued by an authoritative agency as your certificate. This setting is more troublesome, because this is a piece of paper, and paper can be forged, so there will be various gaps. The issuing authority is also a person, and there will be various gaps in the middle. As long as it is related to people, whoever There are various possibilities related to media. The blockchain provides a great opportunity. As soon as you graduate, you will have a record on the blockchain. No one can change this record. This thing exists objectively. You, as a physical existence , and then as a data existence, the blockchain was born. In this case, anyone who wants to check where you graduated can easily solve the problem. This is similar to the big data often involved in social networking (WeChat) and payment platforms (Alipay, Yibao).

Question 6: What is blockchain? Can you explain it in plain language? 10 points The principle of blockchain: decentralized distributed accounting system
The core of blockchain technology is that all currently participating nodes jointly maintain transactions and databases. It makes transactions based on cryptographic principles rather than trust, so that any two parties who reach an agreement can directly conduct payment transactions without the need for a third party. participate.
?
Technically speaking, a block is a data structure that records transactions, reflecting the flow of funds for a transaction. The blocks of transactions that have been reached in the system are connected together to form a main chain, and all nodes participating in the calculation record the main chain or part of the main chain. A block contains the following three parts: transaction information, hash hash formed by the previous block, and random number. Transaction information is the task data carried by the block, specifically including the private keys of both parties to the transaction, the number of transactions, the digital signature of electronic currency, etc.; the hash formed by the previous block is used to connect the blocks to realize the past The order of transactions; random numbers are the core of transaction completion. All miner nodes compete to calculate the answer to the random number. The node that gets the answer the fastest generates a new block and broadcasts it to all nodes for update, thus completing a transaction.
1.1 What is Blockchain
Blockchain (BlockChain) refers to a technical solution that collectively maintains a reliable database through decentralization and trustlessness. This technical solution mainly allows any number of nodes participating in the system to associate and generate a series of data blocks (blocks) using cryptographic methods. Each data block contains all the information exchange data of the system within a certain period of time, and generates The data fingerprint is used to verify the validity of its information and chain to the next database block.
?
In layman’s terms, blockchain technology refers to a way for all people to participate in accounting. Behind all systems there is a database, which is a big ledger. Then who will keep this ledger becomes very important. At present, it is whoever owns the system who keeps the accounts. Each bank’s account books are kept by each bank, and Alipay’s account books are kept by Alibaba. But now in the blockchain system, everyone in the system has the opportunity to participate in accounting. If there are new transaction data changes within a certain period of time, everyone in the system can do accounting. The system will judge the person who has the fastest and best accounting during this period, write the recorded content to the ledger, and Send the contents of the ledger during this period to all other people in the system for backup. In this way, everyone in the system has a complete ledger. Therefore, this data becomes very safe. A tamperer needs to modify more than half of the system node data at the same time to truly tamper with the data. Such tampering would be extremely costly, making it nearly impossible. For example, Bitcoin has been running for more than 7 years. Countless hackers around the world have tried to attack Bitcoin, but so far there have been no transaction errors. It can be considered that the Bitcoin blockchain has been proven to be a safe and reliable system.
?
1.2 Why is there blockchain innovation
Human beings areCommunication is required during activities, and communication is based on information. In the past, information circulation was not convenient enough to meet the information needs of market participants, so intermediaries and centers were born. This centralized system has problems such as high cost, low efficiency, value dispersion, "information islands" and insecure data storage. However, due to technical and environmental factors, this system continued to operate for many years until the emergence of the Internet. The starting point of the first generation of the Internet is the TCP/IP protocol, which is an open code that implements a unified format for peer-to-peer transmission of information by all nodes on the network, and brings the basic values ​​of freedom and equality required by a global unified market into programmed, protocol-based, and reliably Execution. The Internet eliminates low-value, high-cost intermediate chains and achieves low-cost and high-efficiency global information transmission in a decentralized manner.
?
However, the first generation of the Internet did not solve the problem of information credibility. Activities that can be decentralized on the Internet must be activities that do not require credit endorsement, and activities that require credit guarantee must be activities involving centralized third-party intermediaries. Therefore, Internet technology that cannot establish global credit has encountered great obstacles in its progress - people cannot participate in any value exchange activities on the Internet in a decentralized manner. To realize value exchange, people still need third-party intermediaries based on credit (such as banks, clearing agencies, exchanges). The global centralized credit system still has problems such as high operating costs, low efficiency, and vulnerability to attacks and damage. For example, each country's legal currency has different credit values ​​and incompatible clearing systems, which adds a lot of cost to global trade.
?
Therefore, what the second generation Internet must break through is: how to establish global credit in a decentralized manner? Let...>>

Question 7: Explain clearly what is blockchain in an easy-to-understand manner. The English name for blockchain is Blockchain. Block literally means block, block, and chain means chain, chain. Therefore, together they are translated into blockchain.
1. Use cryptography technology to encrypt and decrypt so that records cannot be tampered with. Common blockchain encryption methods include hash algorithm, RSA algorithm, elliptic curve algorithm, etc.;
2. The huge amount of calculation needs to be supported by a reasonable reward mechanism. Because every transaction must be recorded, Bitcoin’s blockchain has more than 60 gigabytes so far. Every new transaction requires confirmation of the information related to the trading account to ensure that the transaction is valid. The huge amount of calculation requires a computer with powerful computing power to complete.
In order to encourage the participation of powerful computing power, Bitcoin provides two rewards: one is to issue a certain number of Bitcoins to these computers every day; instead, all transfer fees are awarded to these computers. (The technical term for these computers is "mining machines", and the people who hold the mining machines are called "miners".)
Biying ChinaIt has made efforts in asset digitization and launched the digital currency crowdfunding platform Biying China.

Question 8: What is blockchain? Blockchain is a new application model of computer technology such as distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, and encryption algorithm. The so-called consensus mechanism is a mathematical algorithm that establishes trust and obtains rights and interests between different nodes in the blockchain system.
In May 2016, the Currency Blockchain Research Center published the first book in China that introduces blockchain in simple terms, "Blockchain: Defining a New Pattern of Future Finance and Economics." It introduces the impact of blockchain technology on future finance and economy

Question 9: What is blockchain? For the time being, this is a relatively high-end technology. It connects all nodes (which can be understood as servers) through p2p network technology. Complete data (blocks) are stored on each node. The addition and withdrawal of any node will not affect the normal operation of the chain. Data is embodied in the form of data blocks. Blocks are connected to each other and can be understood as a one-way linked list. The hash value of the nth block is generated based on the hash of the n-1th block, the transaction recorded in the current block, and the random number as parameters. In this way, if you want to modify the data of the historical block, you have to modify all the blocks from the modified block to the final block. The difficulty can be imagined.
The blockchain also introduces a consensus mechanism and an incentive mechanism. There is no way to describe it too comprehensively here. I hope everyone can discuss and learn together

Question 10: What is blockchain: This explanation of blockchain is more understandable. Blockchain (Blockchain) refers to the method of decentralization and trustlessness. A technical solution for collectively maintaining a reliable database.
In layman’s terms, blockchain technology refers to a way for all people to participate in accounting. There is a database behind all systems. You can think of the database as a big ledger. Then who will keep this ledger becomes very important. Currently, whoever owns the system keeps the accounts. Tencent keeps the accounts of WeChat, and Alibaba keeps the accounts of Taobao. But now in the blockchain system, everyone in the system has the opportunity to participate in accounting. If there are any data changes within a certain period of time, everyone in the system can do accounting. The system will judge the person who has the fastest and best accounting during this period, write his recorded content into the ledger, and record this Within a period of time, the contents of the ledger are sent to all other people in the system for backup. In this way, everyone in the system has a complete ledger. In this way, we call it blockchain technology.
Blockchain technology has become the darling of the financial community in China and has become a hot topic. Domestic Puyin Group has launched Puyin, a tea-based digital currency.

『玖』 What is "blockchain"

BlockchainIt is a public ledger with no centralized hardware or management organization. Anyone can automatically verify the authenticity of the ledger and easily discover whether the ledger has been tampered with by others.

In a word, the blockchain is a public ledger that can be verified by everyone.

The concept of being verifiable by everyone is crucial to blockchain.

Bitcoin uses the blockchain to record all transactions, so anyone knows the number of Bitcoins on each account.

So, as a publicly verifiable ledger, what are some use cases for blockchain?

In fact, there are many use cases that can be thought of. Blockchain is suitable for any data that can be recorded on a public ledger. Here are 4 examples:

1. Decentralized domain name server, namely domain currency. The domain name server is actually a ledger that records domain names.

2. Trustless public key encryption, such as https that discards unreliable certification authorities.

3. Ownership records, truthfully record the items and their corresponding owners.

4. Contracts and performance guarantees, the account book truthfully records the parties to the contract and saves the contract text.

But don’t forget that blockchain also has a very important component.

The ledger recorded using blockchain technology will always be updated. New data such as transactions, domain name inputs, records and contracts will be converted into hash values ​​of the same length by the hash algorithm and saved. However, hashing algorithms are not only not free but also very expensive.

Therefore, the ledger itself needs to have a recognition system to recognize the person who enters the block hash value.

In Bitcoin, this system is called mining and is rooted in the Bitcoin protocol. Bitcoin miners use a hash algorithm to convert transactions waiting for verification into hash values, and charge a certain amount of Bitcoin as a service fee.

Therefore, for non-monetary use cases, blockchain needs to find a way to bear the high cost of hashing algorithms.

I would like to remind everyone that my answer mainly focuses on the possible use cases of blockchain technology, and does not cover all aspects of blockchain, such as why hashing algorithms are so expensive. I'm sure you can find a lot of detailed information about Bitcoin and other blockchain applications online.

Supplement

Although blockchain technology has many advantages, there are still some less than ideal use cases. For example, there is no way to convert Bitcoin into any national currency; a ledger with billions of data entries would take up space and be impractical.

Bitcoin has shown the world that blockchain technology is feasible in principle, and people are also trying to solve these increasingly prominent problems, such as technological transformation of Bitcoin or introduction ofinto a completely different blockchain technology. I think the following two methods are worth trying: one is to split the ledger according to certain standards such as the payer address, and the other is to introduce a main blockchain to verify the sub-blockchain. Blockchain technology is ever-changing and dazzling, and it’s unknown whether someone is already making such an attempt. But Bitcoin is still the world's first currency blockchain, what others call a cryptocurrency.

Whether in the technology circle or the financial circle, blockchain has become the hottest word, no one. Blockchain has core advantages such as decentralization and trustlessness, and can perfectly solve problems such as information asymmetry, high transaction costs, and trust of strangers in the development of the sharing economy, making "individual economy" possible. Based on this, blockchain technology is considered to be the core technology that has the greatest potential to trigger the fifth wave of disruptive revolution after steam engines, electricity, information and Internet technology.

In this context, a blockchain craze was born in society, and everyone praised it overwhelmingly. Dialectics tells us that everything has flaws, and only by seeing the pros and cons of things can we make rational decisions. Therefore, in this article, Xue Hongyan (Hong Yanweiyu), a senior researcher at Suning Financial Research Institute, focuses on pouring some cold water on the blockchain.

| What is Blockchain

Blockchain, English Blockchain, has a rather mysterious technological flavor in its name, and can be simply broken down into "data blocks" and "links". Each data block contains all the information exchange data of the system within a certain period of time, and is encrypted using cryptographic methods; the link means that each block has a link relationship with the next block, thus forming a blockchain.

It is generally believed that blockchain has two major characteristics: decentralization and trustlessness. A brief introduction is as follows:

Since each block contains all the information exchange data of the system within a specific period of time, Therefore, each block is equal, and the damage of a single block does not affect the security of the entire system, so the blockchain has decentralized characteristics.

Similarly, since each block contains all the information of the system, the authenticity of the information can be cross-verified. Only by breaking through more than 51% of the nodes can the information be tampered with. In a large enough blockchain system , the cost is extremely high, it can be considered that the information in the blockchain is true, so the blockchain has the characteristics of trustlessness.

Most people’s understanding of blockchain begins with Bitcoin. The relationship between the two is that blockchain is the underlying technology and concept, and Bitcoin is only the most popular application of blockchain at present. .

Maybe the above is not popular enough. Finally, let me summarize, what do you think the blockchain is? Is it a disruptive new technology? NO! According to Xue Hongyan (Hong Yanweiyu), a senior researcher at Suning Financial Research Institute, blockchain is not so much a new technology.Technology is rather a new idea. The information encryption and other technologies included in the blockchain have been around for a long time, and it is more of a conceptual innovation. This is also the reason why the blockchain has a huge impact. New technologies will be surpassed sooner or later, ranging from one or two years to four to five years; only innovative ideas have enough energy to affect all aspects of the economy and society.

| Blockchain is expected to change the underlying rules of the financial system

In applications in the financial field, blockchain will change the transaction process and record keeping methods, thus significantly reducing transaction costs. It has significantly improved efficiency and is considered to have a broad market environment in digital currency, cross-border payment and clearing, bill trading, securities issuance and trading, property rights transactions, customer credit reporting, anti-fraud, and anti-money laundering.

Such a good technology is naturally sought after by everyone. Like many traditional financial people, Hong Yanweiyu resisted it at first, thinking that this thing was not that great, and did not do any research specifically. Later, as the research on financial technology gradually deepened, it was discovered that blockchain was an obstacle that could not be bypassed, because whether it was robo-advisory, big data risk control or online lending, they were only technological innovations at the financial business level and risk control level. It has not penetrated the bottom layer of the financial system. What is the underlying layer of the financial system? Naturally, it is payment and settlement, transaction rules and system interaction. What the blockchain changes is precisely the underlying rules.

Therefore, throughout the world, financial institutions are the most active in researching blockchain. If nothing else, they are really afraid. After the decentralization and trustless features of the blockchain are fully utilized, what else will the intermediaries of financial institutions do? It is estimated that this is also the first feeling of many people who have a preliminary understanding of blockchain.

In this article, Hong Yanweiyu focuses on pouring cold water on this view.

| Subverting the financial system, blockchain still faces two mountains

Marxist dialectics tells us that everything has two sides. The more prominent the advantages, the more obvious the flaws. It’s just the perspective. Just different. The two major problems with blockchain subverting the financial system lie precisely in the two major advantages of decentralization and trustlessness.

First, let’s talk about decentralization. First, we need to clarify a truth. Does centralization necessarily mean low efficiency? Of course not. Within a specific scope, the concentration of resources brought about by centralization can greatly improve efficiency. This is also the reason why human beings evolve from individuals to villages to tribes and then to countries in the process of evolution. Take UnionPay as an example. UnionPay is the clearing and settlement center for the domestic banking industry. After UnionPay is established, each bank only needs to connect with UnionPay to realize transactions with all banks. If it is decentralized, without UnionPay, each bank will need to When communicating with all counterparties, which one is more efficient? Therefore, there is no need to beat centralization to death with a stick. The decentralization feature of blockchain is destined to only play a role in specific fields (that is, fields that are not suitable for centralization). How can it subvert everything?

Furthermore, it’s a question of trust. There is nothing wrong with detrusting itself, but the technical logic behind it is deeply flawed. Blockchain relies on universal accounting to achieve trustlessness, that is, all transaction information is retained in each block for system cross-verification to identify authenticity. Here comes the problem. Each block retains all transaction information. There is no problem on a small blockchain. However, as more and more information is added, it will inevitably lead to an explosive growth of transaction information and will also bring information. Dramatic increase in storage costs. At the same time, the greater the amount of information, the longer cross-validation takes and the lower the efficiency. Therefore, the blockchain solves the trust problem, but it brings about rising costs and declining efficiency.

Nothing in the world is perfect, and the same is true for blockchain.

As a conclusion, Hongyanweiyu wants to clarify that blockchain, as a conceptual innovation, does have great value and can also have a disruptive impact in specific fields. However, the current one-sided thinking about blockchain is problematic. Eastern wisdom tells us that "the most brilliant and the golden mean", in the face of anything, it is wisest to maintain the golden mean.

(Text/Xue Hongyan, senior researcher at Suning Financial Research Institute; WeChat public account: Hongyan Weiyu)

As early as a few years ago, the word "mining" came with Bitcoin is well known for its popularity. Many people know about Bitcoin first and then the blockchain, and they even don’t know about the blockchain yet. By definition, blockchain is a series of data blocks generated using cryptographic methods. Each data block contains information about a Bitcoin network transaction, which is used to verify the validity (anti-counterfeiting) and generation of its information. Next block.

I am not a computer technology expert. The following introduction to blockchain comes from reading and comments from expert friends and is for reference only.

If you want to use one word to explain blockchain, it is: distributed accounting.

To understand what this word means, you need to first understand that traditional accounting has a center. For example, in a bank, when you withdraw money from a bank deposit or lend money to others through the bank, the bank is the center, and all these transactions are based on the bank's credit. What if the bank cheats? Or is it more serious, is the country cheating? The Kuomintang's indiscriminate issuance of gold yuan coupons at the end of its rule in mainland China, as well as the hyperinflation in Weimar Germany and Zimbabwe, which made the currency less valuable than toilet paper, are very famous examples.

Golden Yuan Coupons

This is the problem that blockchain is aimed at. They believe that decentralized accounting is non-modifiable and non-repudiable. How to achieve decentralized accounting? The basic idea is that all users store all transaction records, making it very difficult to illegally modify the ledger through mathematical methods. In this way, the reliability of the ledger is guaranteed.

Specifically, all users exhaustivelyRandom number variable, the first user to obtain a specific required hash function value (Hash) will have the right to record the transaction in this round and receive the corresponding Bitcoin reward. It is transmitted in the form of data blocks, and the data blocks are connected into a chain by appending at the end, so it is called a block chain.

After listening to the introduction, you may feel that this idea is interesting, but it is not as exciting or revolutionary as advertised. Your feeling is right. In fact, the basic logic of blockchain has some unavoidable problems.

For example, the current size of the complete Bitcoin public ledger has exceeded 150 G, and is rapidly increasing at a rate of tens of G per year - just to support 5 million users and 30 million transactions per year. If its processing volume is one day comparable to that of Alipay, the size of the Bitcoin ledger will increase by more than 500 terabytes per year. This is equivalent to backing up the Alipay server's storage data on all users' personal computers. Do you think this is a good idea?

For another example, in the traditional banking system, if you lose your password, it is no big deal. Just report it to the system in time, and your wealth will not disappear. But in the blockchain system, if you lose your password, it will be a huge trouble, and your currency will not be recovered. Not happy? Is it surprising?

Blockchain is a new application model of computer technologies such as distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, and encryption algorithms. The so-called consensus mechanism is a mathematical algorithm to establish trust and obtain rights and interests between different nodes in the blockchain system

In layman’s terms, it is to play mahjong. Four people can take turns to be the banker, and each other can shoot four people. They all have their own ledger records, but if you want to modify the ledger, you must have more than 50% of the modification rights, so the cost of cheating on the ledger is very high.

In the future, blockchain will be used more in finance to combat money laundering and fraud, because all information can be traced, and in culture it can be used for copyright protection, etc.

I have seen a lot of people’s explanations of blockchain in official terms, and some may not even be clear to the person explaining it. I will explain blockchain in vernacular below to ensure that everyone can read it. Gotta understand.

What is blockchain? Let me give an analogy. In 50 years, you can buy an electric fan from the supermarket. This electric fan will automatically mine coins for you when it is blowing. You can mine coins automatically while using the electric fan. When you use this electric fan, When the fan breaks down, you can use the mined coins to repair the electric fan. Of course, you can also use the mined coins to buy a new electric fan. Many people think wrongly! Wouldn’t the profits of merchants be less? Let me tell you about a certain brand. When the products of this brand are sold to you, the products themselves may even be sold to you at a loss. But once the number of users becomes large, the usersWhen the stickiness is high, you can make profits through small fees such as membership fees or service fees, or other methods. Just like this, the mined coins can be purchased and repaired. Although the merchant's profit may be reduced, the merchant has gained more users and greater user stickiness. By this time, it only takes a minute for the merchant to make money.

And the electric fan you bought is equivalent to winding it up for you. What is winding up? If you put your electric fan on the street now, and 10 people come to snatch it, you have no way to prove that the ownership of this electric fan is yours. Once you put it on the chain, it is equivalent to being tied to you. Once it’s settled, you can prove it.

Therefore, the essence of blockchain is to help make people’s lives more convenient. It is equivalent to upgrading on the basis of the Internet, making it safer and more convenient. This is blockchain! It's that simple.

The security of the blockchain is reflected in its irreversibility and the data cannot be tampered with. We all know that in today's society, any data can be modified and conquered by hackers, but the data in the blockchain is impossible to change. Once generated, it cannot be modified unless all users in the blockchain work together. Agree to modify the data, but this is unlikely to happen.

At present, the blockchain is still very immature, just like the Internet bubble burst in 2000. When the bubble bursts, a truly valuable blockchain Internet will be hatched. company.

The wheel of history will not go backwards. Many people are unwilling to accept blockchain. Just like telling you that you can shop online 20 years ago, this is the same ridiculous thing. Time will eventually prove it. .

1. The main function of blockchain is to store information. Any information that needs to be saved can be written to the blockchain and read from it, so it is a database.

2. Anyone can set up a server, join the blockchain network and become a node. In the world of blockchain, there is no central node. Every node is equal and stores the entire database. You can write/read data to any node, because all nodes will eventually be synchronized to ensure that the blockchain is consistent.

3. Everyone works on the same blockchain, everyone publicly shares the current state of the blockchain, everyone agrees on the rules for new data submission and tampering with the blockchain is prohibited. It is difficult to operate in terms of computing power.

If we assume that the database is a ledger, reading and writing the database is an accounting behavior:

Anyone can verify this public ledger, but there is no single The user can control it. Participants in the blockchain system will jointly maintain the update of the ledger: itModifications can only be made according to strict rules and consensus, and there is a very exquisite design behind this.

(1) Accounting, the system will find the person with the fastest and best accounting within a period of time, let this person do the accounting, and then broadcast the information on this page of the account book to everyone else on the entire network. node, which is equivalent to changing the database record; (consensus mechanism, cryptography)

(2) Verification, other valid nodes in the entire network check the correctness of the block accounting, and stamp the time Stamp to confirm that the block is legal; (timestamp, mathematics)

(3) Form a single chain, that is, compete for the next block after the previous legal block; (smart contract, encryption technology)

p>

(4) Storage, the account book is stored in blocks. As transactions increase, new data blocks will be appended to the existing chain to form a chain structure; (distributed structure, information technology) < /p>

(5) Backup, every participating trader is a node of the block network, and each node has a complete backup of the public account book, which is a distributed ledger.

Features

1. The blockchain has no administrator and is completely centerless. It is precisely because it cannot be managed that the blockchain cannot be controlled. Without an administrator, everyone can write data into it. In order to ensure the trustworthiness of the data: the technology of blockchain makes it impossible to tamper with the data once it is written.

2. Close to zero trust cost.

The cycle time required for Internet companies to build their credit is extremely long. For example, Taobao often takes several years to build its credit. In the blockchain, everyone trusts the code, algorithm and rules, so the cost of trust is extremely low.

3. The marginal cost of constructing and trading assets approaches zero.

If traditional assets are to be used for trading, they need to rely heavily on third parties, such as investment banks, banks, securities firms, etc., for packaging and endorsement, and the fees and thresholds are extremely high. With blockchain, these will not be a problem, and the cost is extremely low.

The value transfer attribute of the blockchain also naturally solves the payment problem, and has the genes to support global payments.

According to my current understanding

1. Blockchain is an outlet.

Everyone is talking about blockchain. Whether they have read it or not, whether they understand it or not, many people are forwarding blockchain articles in their circle of friends. The only new WeChat group is Blockchain related groups.

Investors are talking, entrepreneurs are talking, almost every major Internet company is talking about it, government departments are taking a stand, and tens of thousands of vertical media focusing on blockchain are quickly born.

If you don’t join any currency circle or chain circle, you will be completely out. Even the well-known investment tycoon Zhu Xiaohu was unilaterally declared to belong to the old world by the rising star Chen Weixing.

2. Blockchain generationThe story of sudden wealth.

Although ICO has been stopped by the national level, the most popular word-of-mouth about blockchain is still the increase in wealth by hundreds or thousands of times. Coins that were bought for a few cents or a few dollars are now worth dozens or hundreds of dollars. Everyone is talking about value-added stories.

There are Bitcoin and Ethereum. If you download a digital currency trading platform APP, the various currency codes composed of densely packed letters will feel like a stock exchange.

3. Blockchain is not only a technology, but also a belief at the conceptual level.

The basic layer, application layer, and a lot of blockchain knowledge seem to have a lot to do with the hot artificial intelligence.

Many people say that blockchain technology is mature, but applications have barely found an entrance. We can all shout loudly: Artificial Intelligence +, but if you shout "Blockchain +" now, it's not enough and you will be laughed at. The application scenarios are still being explored.

As for the previous Internet, it was an Internet of confidence. With the addition of blockchain, it became an Internet of value.

Such similar concepts are people’s good expectations for blockchain technology to solve the trust problem. If it is so easy to implement, blockchain can subvert finance, e-commerce, and many intermediaries. But why has the Internet not been subverted for so many years and real estate still relies on intermediaries?

4. Blockchain already has a history, so don’t think it is too new.

Just as many people claim that artificial intelligence is so new that it is a joke, its history can be traced back to the 1950s.

The blockchain is marked by the birth of Bitcoin, which was 10 years ago. There is also a still mysterious founder, Satoshi Nakamoto, who seems to have a Japanese name, and some say he is from the United States. From the Security Bureau, I think it can also be interpreted as "Chinese people are inherently smart", of course the latter is just a joke.

The reason why it has become so popular is because of the skyrocketing price of various digital currencies in 2017, which skyrocketed thousands of times in a few months and days. How could there be such an amazing speed in the past?

5. Blockchain is a knowledge system.

For me, whether it is a trend, whether it is a wealth game, or whether it is technology, we cannot ignore it or ignore it.

I started to make two columns to understand the blockchain from the perspective of characters, stories and characters. One is "Blockchain 100 People (Industry People)" and the other is "Blockchain 100 Investors". (Viewpoint)” Learn and spread at the same time.

As for related books, of course, I will accept them all as ordered. I can only be a follower of various trends and follow suit.

The biggest mistake is not how we criticize the blockchain, but to ignore it when we see it has a huge bubble and the crowd is enthusiastic about it.Stay away from it if you think you are noble.

The only way we have left is to be willing to be students, learn, and learn again.

Literal meaning: block, chain, using a chain to connect each block.

Blockchain = distributed data storage + point-to-point transmission + consensus mechanism + encryption algorithm

What is data storage? For example, a supermarket must have a ledger to record the entry and exit of various goods and transactions. This is storage.

What is distributed storage? It is the account book of this supermarket. Every employee has a copy. Every time there is something that needs to be recorded, it will be recorded in everyone's account book in a timely manner. Distributing each ledger (storage) to countless people (places) is distributed storage. (The supermarket employees here can be understood as blocks, and the ledger is the chain)

What is point-to-point transmission? In the same supermarket, there is no yogurt at the front desk. The shopping guide reports it to his superiors, and then reports it to his superiors.... Finally, he reports it to the warehouse. The warehouse records the accounting records in the ledger, and then transfers the goods to the front desk. As for point-to-point transmission, if there is no yogurt at the front desk, the shopping guide directly tells the warehouse, and the quantity sent by the warehouse to the shopping guide is recorded in the ledger. Everyone knows how many goods the warehouse has sent to the front desk. This is point-to-point transmission. There is no intermediate link, but the accounts can be made public for everyone who holds the ledger to see.

What is consensus mechanism? The consensus mechanism mainly includes two points. In a simple summary, the minority obeys the majority and everyone is equal. Similarly, the positions in this supermarket may be high or low, but everyone’s account books are indeed the same and equal. If someone makes a false account, then this person's account must be different from other people's accounts. At this time, it depends on whose account is remembered by more people. In theory, as long as the blockchain is large enough, then there is no need to make false accounts. Limit reduction! Because of the "minority obeys the majority" mechanism, if you want to make false accounts, then the number of false accounts you need to make must be at least greater than 50% of the total! On a network, if you need to change a piece of data, you must control at least 50% of the total number of computers to succeed.

The encryption algorithm is easy to understand. That is, when you go to the warehouse to adjust goods, the system will protect your privacy very well. It will only record the time, location, and person with a certain number who went to adjust the yogurt. It couldn't be the time, place, or Zhang San went to mix the yogurt. Taken together, this is the core component of the blockchain.

Personally, I think its main function is to decentralize and protect data from being tampered with! Decentralization and data protection are actually related. A supermarket only has one ledger, and any scheduling needs to go through the person who manages the ledger. If you need to make false accounts, you only need to control the person who manages the ledger. And if that supermarket uses blockchain technology, then he will make false accounts. If this is the case, you need to control more than 50% of the people who hold the total number of accounts of that supermarket. Obviously, controlling so many people will be almost impossible as the number of holders increases.
